Yosemite Looksee AR

LookSee is an augmented reality viewer used to find places of interest directly on your phone camera's screen and add fun, knowledge and interest to your adventures and tours.

Once the app is downloaded no further wi-fi or cellular network connection is needed in order for it to work, so you can use it when out and about where there is no signal coverage.

This version is for Yosemite and locates places within the National Park and beyond into the wider California and Nevada areas. The area covered encompasses a rectangle stretching north past Black Hawk Mountain in Tuolumne County, east past Mount Dana into Nevada, South past the town of Wawona and west to Merced.

All towns and districts within the region are covered including: Curry Village, El Portal, Fish Camp, Foresta, Groveland, Mariposa, Merced, Midpines, Tuolmne, Wawona and Yosemite Village.

In fact there are around 10,000 places of interest viewable within the App including places such as the Tunnel View, El Capitan, Sentinel Dome, Half Dome, Bass Lake, Lake Eleanor, Bridalveil and Ribbon Falls.
